Our Neurosurgery coder had to be out unexpectedly - I am only confusing myself the more I read! Please help!

1. Left-sided lumbar microlaminectomy and discectomy for HNP - L5-S1
2. Lumbar facet fusion for joint laxity. L5-S1

I believe I am confused on the combo codes - when and when not to use them! Any help is appreciated!!
